📢 Interesting new devil AND quoll relevant research led by @Olivia_C_Bell Study of devil/quoll diets found that DFTD-induced devil declines have had little impact on the diet of either, BUT human habitat modification reduces diet breadth of both 👇 link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Hello from a ptair of Ptunarras!
We have #excitingnews! The TLC Science Team had a series of remote cameras out at one of our newest reserves, Sloping Main. We were surprised and delighted to see a healthy male #spottedtailedquoll turn up on a couple of our cameras!

@davidghamilton1 Sounds like a reasonable way to make a decision
🚨🚨🚨 IT’S DONE! ❗️The ARC Review Response Bill just passed parliament❗️ No more political interference in individual ARC grants! The ARC will get a Board, who will approve individual grants. It’s a wonderful day for Australian research!
We have #excitingnews! The TLC Science Team had a series of remote cameras out at one of our newest reserves, Sloping Main. We were surprised and delighted to see a healthy male #spottedtailedquoll turn up on a couple of our cameras!

What kind of creature makes a scat like this? And buries whole fruit like this? Any thoughts @davidghamilton1 @outakilta? We’re in Snug, SE Tasmania
If we don’t start doing some experiments on assisted migration soon, and learning from those experiments in the spirit of active adaptive management, it will be too late for many species. Conservationists are too conservative.
Conservation translocations are a commonly used method to help species that are declining. When undertaken because of climate change they are called #assistedmigration or AM. We found AM to be surprisingly uncommon bit.ly/374tLKe (1/n) @cyclonewatson @HugePossum
Better the devil you know: Two Tasmanian devil cancers show distinct growth dynamics and one may outcompete the other by @AnneLise_Gerard @BeataUjvari @SiddleHannah @ROwen_93 doi.org/10.1111/eva.13…
Final paper from my PhD now published…we put cameras 📸 in front of traps with predator scat 🐈 💩 to see what native wildlife did…find out here: publish.csiro.au/AM/AM23050
I did my best
The earliest uses of 'circumvent' referred to a tactic of hunting or warfare in which the quarry or enemy was encircled and captured. Today, 'circumvent' more often suggests avoidance than entrapment. Special Thank You to @arnettwill
One more tool! This recent paper presented "Sherlock" a solution to process #cameratrapping pictures. Characteristics: 1⃣Flexible 2⃣low-resource algorithm 3⃣accessible to researchers with little or no computing background Looking forward to test!
@davidghamilton1 @DebSpillane Ah, of course! Do spotted-tail quolls have a tail that's more or less equal in length to the rest of their body as a rule, or did this one have an especially long tail? #ShowingMyIgnorance
Delighted to add this to the #platypus library. David Fleay was a legend of platypus biology. This was his first book, describing the first time #platypuses were bred in captivity, in 1943. Fleay features a lot in my own #platypusMatters (he also worked on catching #thylacines).
